I just received an email from the bug tracker about a KHTML bug I subscribed to 20 years ago. It was not fixed, but that's ok. ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿคท KHTML was eventually forked into WebKit and in turn Blink, powering Safari and Chromium. Two projects that receive a constant flux of contributions by @igalia and are one of the focus of our business. Long live KHTML! ๐Ÿฅ‚

I'm pretty sure having to print, sign and scan a document is a common scenario for many people. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

I've written a post about how you can avoid that cycle using free and open source software. Take a look! ๐Ÿ’ชโœ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ป

Thanks @anholt and Alyssa Rosenzweig for the inspiration today!

Just like I did for 2022, I've put together a list of @vulkan extensions @igalia helped ship in 2023. Enjoy! ๐Ÿš€ https://rg3.name/202312221450.html

Today's release of Vulkan 1.3.274 provides new extensions to enable encoding of H.264 and H.265 video streams providing a standardized, seamless, low-overhead, and highly controllable way to produce H.264 and H.265 video via hardware accelerators.

New post: I'm playing Far Cry 6 on Linux https://rg3.name/202312081138.html

"So what?", you might say. But maybe you find the story behind that interesting.

@arcepi @igalia I certainly did not reinstall Windows when I switched graphics cards. I used DDU, so perhaps I should do a clean install in the near future, thanks! ๐Ÿ‘

@arcepi I took a few hours this weekend to reinstall Windows from scratch and I can confirm the stability issues in Far Cry 6 and Deathloop are gone. I've updated the post with a small intro paragraph. Thanks for the tip! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

@bkardell OMG that's awesome! I visited Florence in high school as part of an end of year trip and have some great memories from it. I hope it's as impressive as it was back then. ๐Ÿคžโ˜บ๏ธ Have fun!

I really dislike threads in literally all of the places you might talk to people (slack, matrix, discord). Their UI throws me off so much and it honestly yields to me missing messages and being frustrated. I guess I am the anomaly here?
